Overhaul/Inspection

CAUTION

Avoid spilling brake fluid on painted surfaces as severe damage can result. Wipe up spilled fluid at once and rinse well with clean water. This symbol represents brake fluid. Use only DOT 3 brake fluid. Use only HONDA cylinder grease (P/N 08733-B020E) or equivalent.

Carefully inspect the bore of the master cylinder for pits, scratches or scoring. Replace the master cylinder if the bore is damaged or worn. Do not hone or attempt to refinish the bore.

NOTE

Wash all removed parts in brake fluid and blow dry with compressed air. Blow open all passages and fluid ports. Replace all rubber parts with new ones whenever the cylinder is disassembled. To prevent damage, liberally apply clean brake fluid to the piston cups before installation. Use special tool to install the cups. Do not attempt to refinish master cylinder bore. Replace if pitted or warn.
